The Indian Summer weather has
lured quite a few of the boys out
to Soldiers' Field for after-school
sessions of touchball. There are no
All-Americans in the group, but some
of the boys are pretty good. Modesty prevents me from naming the
best, but Fran Campion can really
sling that bull around, and that's not
a typographical error!
Ho-Hum
Glancing through the "Prison Mirror," a weekly published by the inmates of the Minnesota State Prison,
I found a columnist who claimed that
M.S.P. is the only educational institution in the United States that has
never held a "Sadie Hawkins Day"
celebration. He adds, "We wish we
had a Sadie Hawkins." That's no joke
about it being an educational institution, for many of the men are
taking extension work from the University, and the demand for mechanical workers exceeds the list of those
on parole.
Ho-Hum
What a life! In the last issue I
stuck my neck out with a crack about
the Med-Sec girls working too hard,
and about twenty girls crawled right
down my throat—that is, as far as
twenty girls could—in a throat that
still contains tonsils, vocal cords,
uvula, and a dark brown taste.
Before I recovered from their verbal
chastisement, I encountered Jackie
Vincent with murder in her heart,
and now my private secret service
organization has informed me that
Jack Ripple and Art Swan are coming home at Christmas time with
something contrary to the "peace
toward men" spirit motivating them.
Woe is me! But I don't worry this
week 'cause I'm just as tough as
Campion.

How About It?
Joint clubrooms are offered to all
of us students—clubrooms which we
really may be proud of if we all
do our share. The clubrooms were
instituted as a place to meet our
friends, to study, and to have fun.
We all take part in the club meetings, dances, bridge games, ping
pong, and the other good times with
enthusiasm; therefore, we should all
show our appreciation by helping to
maintain the "good-fellow" atmosphere.
Along with the improvements of
popular magazines — such as "The
New Yorker, the "Madamoiselle,"
the "American," and the "Esquire"—
more comfortable furniture, and a
general cleaning, order could be an
added attraction if we all would cooperate by replacing our coke
bottles, putting the "mags" back in
the rack, and getting our waste paper
in the basket.

GIVE HIM—"that man in your life" some Ski Jamas in bright
green, or a Loafer's coat of blue bark and brown hounds
tooth check—at Hannys'.
GIVE HER—"perfume"—a whiff of heavy sweet fragrance runs
like a thread through all her memories bringing back soft
warm southwinds, a summer sky, and that spring of all her
life in a heady haze of sweet.
MOTHER—would love something personal instead of the usual
"something for the house." The hostess gowns at Massey's
will make her feel like a queen and she will look like the
"sweet young thing" that dad married.
DAD—will keep on saying that there is no shave like the old-
fashioned shave unless you give him a new streamlined
Shavemaster from Weber & Judd's.
SIS—adores turquoise bracelets, especially since the Duchess
of Windsor ordered one while she was in the United States.
Saidy's have that special look.
BROTHER—likes ski paraphernalia regardless of whether he can
ski or not; at least, he can always try. Rich Hargesheimer
will be glad to offer some suggestions as well as expert
advice.

Many Students
Work for Tuition
Few realize what an ambitious
group of young Americans are enrolled at R. J. C. From a recent
survey on student employment it was
found that 40 per cent of the students work for either all or part of
their board and rcom, besides carrying their school courses. Of this
hardworking group two-thirds are
boys and only one-third girls. The
number of hours they are employed,
of course, varies — from as low as
four or five up to 50 hours a week.
Thirty-nine per cent of these students
work up to 15 hours a v/eek; 19 per
cent work between 15 and 25 hours;
35 per cent work from 25 to 50
hours.
The type of work varies about as
much as the number of hours worked.
Almost every type of labor seems to
be represented. Included in the
feminine class are general housework,
clerking, secretarial work, sales work,
and work at St. Mary's Hospital and
the Mayo Clinic. The boys have a
broader range. There are clerks, ushers, library assistants, an apprentice
embalmer, farmer, a plumber, radium technician, nurses, and a baker.
Two boys are employed at unusual
occupations. One is a registered
nurse for the Kahler Corporation; the
other is a psychiatric student nurse
at the Rochester State Hospital. Both
boys work 48 hours a week.
If you would add their part-time
work to their hours of class, plus time
for home work, you would realize
then that these R. J. C. students are
as busy as is possible.
JUNIOR COLLEGE
ENGLISH TEACHERS
CONFER AT "U"
A conference of junior college
English instructors was held on the
University of Minnesota campus on
Friday and Saturday, November 14
and 15, under the auspices of the
English department of the University,
at the invitation of Dean Shumway
of the College of Science, Literature
and Arts.
Last spring a similar conference
of the mathematics teachers of the
junior colleges was held and found
to be very successful. The object of
these meetings is to coordinate the
junior college English departments
with that of the University.
On Friday the various instructors
visited the University English classes
during the day and that evening attended a dinner meeting at the Coff-
man Memorial Union, at which Mr.
Hillhouse, the chairman of the freshman composition group of the Uni-

New Film Projector
Aids In All Classes
Since the purchase of the new
film projector and sound equipment
nearly two months ago, it has been
serving the need for visual education
in a. great many of the classes for
quite a number of the teachers. To
date, Mr. Shaw has shown five films
to his several classes, beginning with
"Come Out of the Kitchen" and
"The Doctor Prescribes," dealing
with modern day advertising, marketing and manufacturing. Since
that time Mr. Shaw has shown "Progress on Parade," "Great Oaks,"
and "America Marching On!" Mr.
Staley, who has charge of the visual
program, has shown "Wild Geese
Flying," "Carlos Avery, Game Referee," "Pike Propagation," "Diesel,
the Modern Power," and "Master
William Shakespeare" to his various
classes. Mr. Gerken has shown "Aptitudes and Occupations," "Endocrine
Glands," "The Nervous System,"
"How the Eye Functions," "How We
Hear," and "Physiological Reactions
in Emotion" in his various classes in
psychology. Miss Endicott has used
in her classes "Jewels of Thesea"
and "Living Jewels." Mr. Singley has
shown "Velocity of Chemical Reactions," "Molecular Theory," and

Collegiates Applaud
American Songs
A cavalcade of American songs,
"The American Songbag," was presented to a joint convocation of high
school and junior college students on
Thursday morning, November 27.
There were three members in the
troupe—a baritone, a violinist, and
a soprano and pianist. The program
was introduced as being as American
as ham and eggs, and as American
as darkies strumming their banjoes.
The medley of some of Stephan
Fosters' famous compositions brought
forth the loudest round of applause
from the students. Included were
"O Susannah," "Old Black Joe," and
"I Dream of Jeanie." Others they
sang and played were: "My Little
Buckeroo," "Home on the Range,"
"Turkey in the Straw," "One Morning in May," and "The Home Road."
Their hour's songbag was very appropriately drawn tight with America's "God Bless America," and thus
ended another weekly convocation,
one which stirred us all once more
to a realization of our sacred heritage, the American ideal in song.
